if anyone is planning to buy new #5G smartphone (in India) make sure that it has support at least following 3 bands. n28(700mHz), n78(3300-3800MHz) and n258(24.25-27.5GHz)
among these n28 &n78 is the most crucial band. I'll try to explain about these bands in the simplest form👇
among these n28 &n78 is the most crucial band. I'll try to explain about these bands in the simplest form👇
we can classify bands into 3 sections
1.Low band- sub-1 GHz frequencies. this band has greater coverage but lower speeds about 50Mbps. this is called blanket-layer which gives nationwide coverage. every phone should support one low band to get whole India coverage. 2/n

2. Mid Band- frequencies between 2-7 GHz, it offers a solid balance between coverage and speed b/w 100 to 900 Mbps. Designed to cover large areas across suburbs and cities. 3/n
3. High Band- also called as millimeter wave band, above 24GHz frequencies (24.25-27.5GHz in India) this is where you will enjoy the real 5g, the fastest among all three band, having very low coverage area but with the maximum speed of 1-10GBps. 4/n
high band has a latency of 1milisecond (latency-time it takes for a data packet to travel from one designated point to another, for 4G it was 200 milliseconds) 5/n
So, when choosing a 5G phone make sure that it supports multiple bands (low,mid and high). high band will not be available in all places will be restricted to few hundred meters.6/n #5GIndia
#5G is not just about speed, it offers massive network capacity, increased availability, and a more uniform user experience to more users. it will lead to the Fourth Industrial Revolution and change the economy and lives of people. 7/n
